Improving people's lives through diligence, hard work

Last Thursday, a meeting to celebrate International Workers' Day and honor outstanding working individuals and groups nationwide was held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

Yin Xinmin, a doctor at the provincial people's hospital in central China's Hunan Province, was presented with the May Day labor medal.
During his 34-year career in medicine, Yin has employed his exquisite skills to treat tens of thousands of patients. He regarded the award as an inspiration to front-line medical staff and a recognition of the dedication of working people.
Aside from presenting awards to model workers across the nation, China has been taking a series of measures to ensure the well-being of its working people and protect their rights.
In 2021, the country issued a guideline to step up the protection of the rights and interests of workers engaged in new forms of employment, such as online car-hailing drivers and internet marketing specialists.
A special campaign will also be launched to rectify order in the human resources market, crack down on unlawful activities such as illegal intermediary agencies and false recruitment, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of workers, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security announced last Thursday.
